Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Corn Chips scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Natural Flavors (Monosodium Glutamate, Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Chips & Crisps, this product is more processed than about 85% of the 10,682 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
